No song has ever made me weep, but Jim Croce has several that really strike a deep chord with me - New York's Not My Home, Operator and These Dreams especially. It is unfortunate that such a powerful and versatile artist with such a great voice had to die so early.
Johnny Cash's rendition of Hurt (Trent Reznor's original is outstanding as well of course) also always really centered me. Speaking of Trent, Nine Inch Nails has some absolutely fantastic tracks that really pull on those heartstrings - Trent's emotion really, really seeps into his music and he is amazing live.

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
